These bottles can be bought at DMZ border (in South Side). Going there it's like going in propaganda attraction park. Every 5 minutes the mandatory guide explains why North Korea is THE enemy. We can see North Korean

houses with fake windows through telescope. But "DMZ is alive" thanks to its unique wildlife biodiversity, as said by the big American voice-over of the local DMZ TV program.

These stamps are amongst the newest from an old collection which belonged mainly to my father, though we kids had a fair few thousand, too - all fifteen here cost 12p in the 1970s - a couple may be from the 1960s. This one appears to depict the supposed triumph of the NK version of communism over the US and Christianity.

This is part of the English-language edition of Korea (1960, no. 52, p.23), an illustrated monthly magazine that was also published in Korean, Russian, Chinese, Japanese and French.

Sin Kim Dan/Shin Geum Dan was the world’s outstanding female track athlete of the early 1960s, reducing the world record for 400m by a significant margin and, in 1963, becoming the first woman to break the 2-minute barrier for 800 metres. However, the latter achievement was not officially recognized, because it had been achieved in the GANEFO Games in Jakarta which were not sanctioned by IAAF.

A hot favourite for the 400m/800m at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, she was barred from competing because of her participation in the previous year’s GANEFO Games. As a result, the North Korean team walked out of the Olympic village and Ann Packer (GB) took a surprise gold in the 800m. Not only did Shin Geum Dan’s best times go officially unrecognised; elements of the Western press then proceeded to cast doubts upon her gender, following reports that a South Korean soldier claimed she was his long-lost son.

(Reposted; I don't think previous post got through) I interned for a travel company specialising in North Korea and gathered quite a collection of North Korea memorabilia. I particularly like the brochure entitlted "How to cope with potential disaster".
